AndyinLiverpool Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 See this from Wikipedia: James Alan Irvine (born 12 July 1958), known as Alan Irvine, is a Scottish former footballer andmanager, currently in charge of West Bromwich Albion (an appointment universally derided by the fans who bemoan the club's leadership and lack of ambition particularly chairman Jeremy Peace who on June 14th 2014 was confirmed to be tighter than a nuns vagina).

TigerTedd Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 So they sack a European manager, with that continental cheque going for him, with Everton's academy coach. If I was a WBA fan, I'd be seriously underwhelmed. And they're going to be even more pissed off when he lets us have George Thorne for 1.5m.

GeneralRam Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Strangest Prem appointment since Brian Laws at Burnley. I also made a killing on that appointment! I met his best mate (who was on the board at Scunny) in a box when Scunny thrashed us. It was a done deal weeks before it was announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Anyone remember this? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/preston/8120577.stm They finally got their man after all these years. To be fair to Irvine, he had a blinding season with Preston and was wanted by WBA for £2million or something daft, but turned them down. He was sacked 6, or so, months later by Preston. Shocker.
